A cycle tour through Itzehoe around the Hungry Wolf combines urban flair with wide open spaces and nature. From the city area, the route leads out towards Hungriger Wolf airfield, where the landscape opens up and long, quiet stretches invite you to enjoy a relaxed cycle.

The contrast is particularly appealing: on the one hand, the proximity to the city with its canals and green spaces, and on the other, open fields, old taxiways and spacious paths that remind us of the history of the site. Today, the Hungry Wolf is a place of tranquillity, ideal for steady riding and sweeping views as far as the horizon.

The route is mostly flat and therefore ideal for leisure cyclists. Quiet spots invite you to take a short break - perfect for taking a deep breath and enjoying the special atmosphere between town and country. This tour shows Itzehoe from a surprisingly open and relaxed side.
